After saving Jack and Sally, Lock, Shock, and Barrel realized they had no more purpose, seeing as Oogie was reduced to fabric."Guys, I want you to know, you've always been like my little brothers. It's been great knowing you." On that note, their team was broken up. Shock was becoming a literal witch trying to bring Oogie back with necromancy, but it was no use to keep trying. The books she read told her that she needed all 3 team members to bring him back, but she thought she could do this on her own. Lock still stayed in the treehouse, and when she finally got something, he came down behind her, and was kissed, completely on the lips."That never happened, got it Lock? This didn't happen. Anyway, you know how I'm literally becoming a witch? Well, I finally got a sign."" Meaning what, exactly?"" It means that we're this close to having a team again." Unfortunately, they wouldn't be a team again for almost 10 years.
